The Monk healing spec (Mistweaver, a catchy name) is designed to rely heavily on punches and kicks. You get to DPS while you heal (or… heal … [Read more of this article]
This mutt has been available on the PTR for some time. He had way too much health on 10 man during my initial times with him. He’s much more manageable now. You’ll find that this fight is a slight DPS check and skill check. When you first engage the encounter, the tanks will need to … [Read more of this article]
In a word, probably not. More and more players are finding themselves on Twitter and Facebook. Guild members are adding each other as friends to all these other social networks and their thoughts are then broadcast which expose themselves to even more players. There is always an inherent risk though. Much like the way companies … [Read more of this article]
It’s been 2 and a half years since Conquest has been formed. We’ve had our shares of victories and defeat. I figured a situation like this would come one day. I never imagined it would come from a main tank. Least of all from a main tank. I knew he wasn’t having much enjoyment out … [Read more of this article]
With all the changes to healing between the expansion’s release and subsequent patches, restoration shaman have kind of gone in a bit of a circle almost. We started out the expansion with the inclusion of a few new spells that really set the tone. Healing Rain was an absolute power-house addition to our healing, and … [Read more of this article]
Note: That’s actually Lodur’s kill screenshot. How he heals with raid frames that small, I have no idea =). Healing from World of Logs Conquest is officially 2/13 in the hard mode 25 progression.

I’ve been meaning to touch back on AV; my win ratio has gone down quite a bit since the first day. Still I would call it an improvement over all: at least when we lose it’s only after about 10 or 15 minutes and Horde is only up by about 100 reinforcements, rather than the game being 45 minutes long and the Horde being up by some 400. =P And since the new patch, I’ve yet to wind up stuck at some turtle at the bridge, too– I feel like I’m always on offense and that’s really nice, even if we are still losing.
Ooh, an e-book? what on?
Pike: Indeed. I love being on the offense.
Track: No idea. Haven’t figured that part out yet.
